Digital Summer Clinic Intern

Applications for the 2024 CDE Summer Clinic internship open February 12, 2024. The final deadline is April 30, 2024. Interviews will occur in May with decisions by Memorial Day. 

The Center for Digital Engagement (CDE) is offering a part-time, 10 hour per week paid internship in digital. The rate will be $18+/hour. The internship lasts 9 weeks starting in mid-June and finishing in mid-August. As an intern, you will work in teams of two with start-up companies in Ann Arbor SPARK’s high-tech business incubator. In addition to the paid part of the internship, you will obtain individual certification on an approved digital platform (for example, Google Analytics). Finally, you will attend a weekly seminar session related to your work. These activities are part of a mentoring program to prepare you for entering the digital workforce. Internship meetings will be both in-person and online.

All higher ed students and recent graduates (graduated within 18 months) in Southeast Michigan are welcome to apply. We have had successful interns from a variety of regional and national institutions, including EMU, WCC, UM, MSU, WMU, CMU, Schoolcraft, Dartmouth College, and Columbia University, among others. 

The key elements of the application are the statement of purpose and resume. Please take time to carefully review these items as everything you submit is taken into consideration. Even if all your jobs were part-time, they still demonstrate your commitment to showing up for work. Your statement of purpose will better help us understand what you think you can do. Be daring and go for it. The worst that can happen is that we do not offer you the internship.
